GSL Finals Reaction and the Joy of E-Sports

Un-be-lievable.

LG IMMvp vs StarTale Squirtle.

I won't ruin the outcome for those who will go check out the Videos on Demand on www.gomtv.net , but, needless to say, I am blown away.

I just stayed up to watch the most amazing Finals of the highest level tournament in the game, set in a big stadium in South Korea. The GSL Code S Season 2 Finals. It was like some kind of insane Super Bowl tonight, and the games I saw blew my mind. I have watched big SCII tournaments before, but tonight really stood out. I have even seen GSL Finals before, but nothing prepared me for the games I was going to see in this match.

If SCII truly interests you, I can't recommend enough looking into watching professional StarCraft II matches, particularly the GSL. Sure they're late at night for many, but when you catch some big matches, it is worth it in every possible way. Tonight was full of amazing stuff that had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I have still got chills over those final games.

Sometimes sports can really be great. And SCII taps into a vein of tension and excitement that simply can't be beat.

What an absolute and utter joy.

How about you guys and gals? What did you think of those games, particularly the one hour long epic? Isn't E-Sports really something special sometimes?
